Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to present some of Attila T. Szabó’s unpublished letters, addressed to Zoltán Székely, in order to introduce some unique information into the scientific circuit that relates to the processing and publication of the scientific heritage of Cs. Bogáts Denes, former librarian and linguist at Székely National Museum of St. George. For several decades, between the great linguist, historian and ethnographer, Szabó T. Attila and the former director of the Székely National Museum in St. George, Zoltán Székely, there was a fruitful friendship and scientific cooperation. At 25 years of the passing away of the one who was Szabó T. Attila and the 100th anniversary of the birth of Zoltán Székely, by publishing these letters, we tried to present a small episode of this friendship, which existed between the two scholars. The six letters were written between 9. December 1969, and 9. March 1971 and contain a series of data and considerations of the activity of Cs. Bogáts Dénes. In this period appeared the first issue of the Scientific Yearbook of the Szekely National Museum in St. George “Aluta” appeared which provided space for publication of many famous scholars of the time.
